  "account": "The Federal Capital Territory, FCT, Police Command has apprehended a woman, Mrs Rukayat Muhammed, in relation to the death of a man whose body was found along the Kubwa Expressway. The FCT Commissioner of Police, CP Mohammed Sanusi, announced this during a press conference in Abuja on Saturday. According to the CP, the suspect and the deceased were staying at the Good Samaritan Guest House on 2nd Avenue, Gwarimpa, before the man's death. The suspect allegedly failed to alert the police when she discovered that the deceased was not breathing, instead she left the hotel with his mobile phone. The body of the deceased was discovered on August 26, 2026, along the Kubwa Expressway by Katampe under the bridge. Initially, the incident was suspected to be a result of a \"one chance\" occurrence, while the deceased's family had earlier reported him missing. The police began their investigation after confirming that the deceased's mobile phone was missing and tracking its last known location, which led to the arrest of the suspect, a married woman from Garki Area 2. Further investigation revealed that the suspect and the deceased had a romantic relationship and the suspect had saved the deceased's contact on her phone under the name \"Safiyat.\" The investigation also showed that the suspect and the deceased had stayed at the Good Samaritan Guest House, where they spent time together. The suspect informed the police that she discovered the deceased was not breathing and had died, but instead of reporting it to the police, she took his mobile phone and left the hotel. Several hours later, the deceased's body was found inside the room, and instead of reporting the incident to the police, two hotel staff members, identified as Ibrahim Omeiza and Kefat Bitrus, removed the body and dumped it along the Kubwa Expressway. The FCT Police boss stated that an investigation is ongoing to determine the full circumstances surrounding the man's death, and anyone found to have played a role in the death or subsequent concealment and abandonment of the body will face the law.",
